FLCGA Founder Barbara Petersen: Protecting Your Right to Records

from Between the Lines with Dara Kam · host Dara Kam, Barbara Petersen

Barbara Petersen, founder of the Florida Center for Government Accountability, is the tip of the spear in defending the public's right to access government records. The doyenne of open government joins "Between the Lines with Dara Kam" from State Affairs this week to discuss a landscape where citizens and reporters are met with government officials' "total refusal" to turn over records. We dive into the erosion of Floridians' right to information, high-profile public-records litigation, and a comparison of how Florida governors have complied with what was once the nation's model for government-in-the-sunshine. Plus, hear Petersen recount her tangles with the powerful in Tallahassee over access. Visit pro.stateaffairs.com/florida for more.
